Hello, Please Check following 1.Plugin VS Hardware where aplicable 2. whats your "top 3" 3. whats for mixing or Mastering, 4. what is a must have (even if plug ins available) 5. Test a module with Full rack and test the same Unit with alone in the rack. any difference in Sound? 6. WES audio interface vs RME UFX. ThanX U :) and good luck. did you win the lotto? or you have realy good friends? Just jocking, cheers ;) greetings from Greece.
Barry, so excited today……your like a kid in a candy store . Love it
Two obvious suggestions: 1) Same (or close) settings on EQs to do real time A/B... lots of talk about characteristics from gear folk, not a lot of right next to each other comparisons (we guitar guys do a lot of that!)... 2) Not sure it fits the goal, but how about those hardware units compared to their plugin counterparts? Anyhow, no need to respond to me here. I am along for the ride!
It would be really interesting to get hear an in-depth demo of the BIG. That and/or looking at whether other effect types (EQ, compression/expansion, etc) can replicate the effect of the BIG.
I’m excited for the videos that are coming from all this 500 series goodness. I just got into 500 series equipment. I will say not to be negative, I first bought the Fredenstein bento 10s but it had a terrible hum. I moved all the modules around even just putting in 1 module furthest from the internal power supply but the hum stayed. Luckily I bought it through Sweetwater and they took it back no questions asked. (Such a great company!)I upgraded to the Rupert Neve Design R10 and no hum! Couldn’t be happier. I’m a little jealous with all the new toys you get to play with. Have fun sir!
I have a bento no hum at all and sounds fab!
Did you have a power conditioner in use? If not it will have caused your hum. The neve is amazing and definitely better quality, but if you don’t have a conditioner
I’d really recommend getting one. They’re in-expensive and will save your gear longevity and reduce all your hum
@@alexhulme6135 yes I have a power conditioner and everything that is tied into my recording setup is plugged into it. I probably just got a bad one, every company has a hiccup here and there. I didn’t stick with it but I’m sure they make great stuff since they have more positive reviews than negative on the forums. Hence why I purchased it. That was just my experience.
You made a mistake, should have bought a WES rack!
I picked the pieces to show all of you.
Do this it's AMAZING IGS RUBBER BANDS Equalizer
Barry I’m so thrilled you are doing this. I just bought my first 500-series rack and have space for three preamps. I’d love to hear your thoughts on good entry-level preamps for someone dipping their toes in analog after being in-the-box since I was teaching GarageBand seminars at the Apple Store 20 years ago. Warm Audio? Golden Age? Is the difference between entry level (up to $600 let’s say) and something like a Neve dramatic enough that it would be better to get one $1000 unit instead of two affordable ones?
Don't really know what all this equipment does, but as a kid of 90's I know Hulk Hogan 😅
Like to see the WesAudio Hyperion compared with other Multi and EQs. I want to know how to Integrate the Calypso into the workflow! This was always a confusing unit
Whoa Barry - you could do an hour or more on each module! Really looking forward to you digging into the 542 - I had 2 and sold them and missed them every since. Really want to know what you think.
Oh! I forgot to mention. I REALLY want that RMX16 reverb unit. I would love to hear you run audio through it
I am thinking about adding a 500 series rack. Clairborne Audio looks interesting. I just want to make sure it's easy to use.
I'm curious as a blind musician, composer and mixer, how someone like me can use 500 Series gear? Could you explain on some benefits of using the hardware versus software from a blind users perspective? I will say things have gotten really accessible for me to do things on my computer, but I've always wondered how or what its like to control hardware like that? I'm sure its really tactile.
I got the Lindell 510 rack, it’s great because it has db25 in them and it is 10 slot unit, for $499
Let’s see that maag with ams rolling off the low and using that air band🤷🏼♂️
Can you try the Wes audio 500 rack out maybe? I hear it’s very good
Hey ! I wanna get into woodworking, especially to build studio furniture. How do I get started? What tools do I need? And how do you learn how to build it? Thank you !
Juan, that’s a wide open question as it can get deep. Give me an email.
Looking forward for videos thank you! Wesaudio Mimas vs 1176 sound
me too mate
The Wes audio EQ’s can be set to run two separately controlled mono channels too. When you factor in the saturation, it’s a solid deal
I think you’ll love the Neve 542. Eventually you’ll probably get another one and put on your Mixbus permanently. Very cool stuff! Looks like Christmas came early😊
Damn I kick myself for selling my pair. A mistake I guess I could fix with $2500 Canadian.
@@JimboJones99 That works too. I set them up early in the mix, and only blend like 20% . If I bypass them the mix just looses the life.
@@JimboJones99 Hey Jimbo! Do you have a goto setting you like to start with? Curious how you dial this in for tracking.
@@JimboJones99 Cool! Different than what I was doing, but will try that as a starting point asap. Think I'm going to buy 1 back asap and the other when I can afford it. Should have never sold my stereo pair.
@@JimboJones99 You on reverb at all?
Want to see The Big bigtime also
AVID ???
Great choices all around, I've been looking at every one except the maag - really interested to see how you think the WesAudio interface converters sound. Would be interesting to also see a channel strip type setup - running a piece of audio through the interface, into an EQ and then through the tape emulation, etc, Looking forward to the upcoming videos!
Something you might want to talk about because it is kind of a messy kind of convoluted subject is the 500 series and power supplies and you being a woodworker like the idea of making a 500 series case and like what you would put in it as far as like a power supply to powerthe whole rack without having an issue. Just a thought.
You just planted a seed
@@BarryJohns + 💯. Comparing the specs on 500-series chassis units and their corresponding power supplies would be of GREAT value. Include recommendations for conditioned UPS options as well?
For those who want to move from plugins only to 500 series options, adding AC-based noise from a crappy 500 chassis/power supply would be an argument for staying ITB.
You’d be doing Sweetwater a solid by addressing resistance to their bigger-ticket 500-series options.
rig it up!
I dig it.
Too much coffee😂
Well, "hearing" something would be a real great base line. I appreciate what and who you're trying to reach here but at the end of the day, you generally talk about audio related stuff here with little to zero audio content so.....*Listening* to content and not just some cat talking about it is the way, no? Looking forward to your sound egs.
I guess you have never heard of a preview. He said he was going to demo them and wanted our input on what to try them on.
@@kylerhodes1706 I guess the point I made about him providing videos with *actual audio* and not content always being eclipsed with videos where he just yammers on and on *about audio* is something beyond your comprehension.
500 series is the way to go if you like variety with a reduction of space. They are still not quite as cheap compared to their 19inch counterparts. Two Neve R6 boxes because I did not want to skimp on durability and PSU, but those BAEs are top notch as with most of their gear.
I have that SSL 611 EQ and the Neve 542. I am considering getting a second to use as a master bus. It smokes any plugin emulator as I chain it as a part a channel strip. I'm definitely interested in hearing the Maag and BAE EQs.
Very cool. Very excited about this series. Very very interested in almost all of these units. 👍👍👍
Man I love the 500 series2(squared) idea. But honestly there are things you pulled out in this video that I dont need to hear to know I want 😂. Like the SSL EQ. It doesnt matter which console its based on its gonna sound good. Which I think the one you have is an "E" series, which is my favorite for sure!
Barry i have a neve 1073. I want to know which compressor would pair up well. I am thinking tegeler audio VLA, wesaudio mimas and as a cheaper option FMR RNC500. Which would you think as an interesting option within 1000 usd.
I thought you were selling your Avis S1,
Still considering,
Very cool! I’ve been waiting for any YT demo’s on the RMX-16 in various 500 chassis since I’ve read it may not be compatible in all chassis. I’m guessing that rack they sent you is 100% compatible. Looking forward to see it performing
I'm really stoked about this series.
Everything in there looks amazing but I'm specially interested in how good the Bento is, since it has been on my wishlist for a while, the Maag EQ and the Wes Audio stuff.
Since that is what I'm looking for at the moment, I'd love to see you put together a vocal chain to use on the way in, that can also be used for other stuff like bass and guitar DI.
This is going to be so much fun! Can't wait for the ssl eq I've been on the fence about buying one to replace my plugin. A shootout with the neve tape vs plugin would be a great video. Only thing I wish was that you would have chose the Cranborne 500adat for your chassis. Been very curious about that product now that I have filled my 10 500 series slots. Can't wait for the new vids!
Barry!! Do a review on the Lindell Audio Lin76 and Lin2A. I’ve seen glowing reviews but I am interested in getting your much trusted opinion.
I love the 500
My biggest curiosity is about the Fredenstein rack. I have seen so many racks with internal power supplies that have induced hum issues in the last slot next to the power supplies. Even my old API had that problem and I was told by API that it was kind of normal. Needless to say, I don't have the API rack anymore.
Very nice - I’ve been eyeing those portico units and the AMS reverb lately. Excited to hear that on drums and vocals.
That Wes audio interface looks interesting!
Ya, definitely plugin vs hardware.
I know it may not be fair to compare, but still, might be interesting to hear the differences.
Thanks.
This is perfect, I just bought a Cranborne 500ADAT and a SH Fredenstien Bento 8, nothing to put int hem yet but Im looking to get up a mix bus for hybrid more than an recording set up. EQ and Pres are on my list, so the MAG caught my eye, as did the BAE. Superb selection to get started there.
Interesting to see a lot of of people in the comments have had hum issues with the fredensteins and other companies.
I’ve had no issues at all with mine but I do have a decent power conditioner!
If you’ve not got a conditioner and you’re entering the hardware hybrid world it’s a MUST!
They are in expensive and will save you from all the hum across all your gear! They will also help with the longevity of your units too
Cant tell whether the excitement is real or fake..
I’m all real brother
Excellent - I have always wondered if the 500 series could be great for someone who left audio years ago and restarting 20+ years later so I might as well be a novice because I truly am considering that I learned audio and electronic when tubes was the norm :)
Nice catch! Have you got a software emulation of any of those units? A software/hardware comparison is always fun to watch.
Why not pick Cranborne for the rack?
Was out of stock, it’s coming though.
I’d love to see how similar moves on the different eqs sound. .
Excited to hear that Maag EQ
😊yes this sounds very interesting
I think you love new gear too! 😄
Do you get to keep them all?
Like a kid at Christmas , love it.
Eugene in blue jeans!! na na na boo boo! 🙂
I just got “what i think is” my best mix on nothing but 500 series analog (minus some “mastering”) i just need more of it since i have 16 mics on the drums
